President Joseph R. Biden Jr.

held a joint press conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. The German Chancellor's first name is Olaf, not Martin. The President does not consider the European Union to be a union. The Soviet Union no longer exists, which meant the Russian Federation. There are no plans for a phone call with the late Russian politician Mikhail Gorbachev to improve relations with Russia. The president was always aware that the man next to him was the German Chancellor.
